Chen Xiang Ru Xie (2022)

Must Watch!

Anyone who watches this drama will know what I mean when I say that it is so addicting. I recommend to anyone who like historical drama or Xianxia drama, because it has a very good intense storyline that puts your emotions up and down. The main leads are great at expressing emotion. If you like, Eternal love or Ashes of love :)

CGI is also really beautiful. There is one scene that looks very pretty and nice with CGI.

So far, it is definitely a top Xianxia drama for me. It is definitely comparable to the top Xianxia dramas and if you like those you will be not disappointed. THIS IS A MUST WATCH!

Amazing show so far !!!

The story is really amazing. The chemistry between the two leads is epic. I have to give major kudos to the producer I can sense that we are going to be taken through a world of emotions.
Yang Zi -Is so beautiful and has a great personality. Her acting is really amazing. So far in the first ten episodes I have been amazed at how smart , funny and caring she Is.
Cheng Yi - Looks amazing - He is a really good actor he knows how to draw in his audience. I love his personality. He has a great sense of humor and is really caring.

I am really intrigued that we are going to be seeing the actors play 3 different characters , I am also happy its a rather long drama I enjoy watching Long series. I know its been chopped down from 80 eposides (Which I would of love to have ) However 57 will do.

The costumes look good ! Love the make up every one looks amazing. I been waiting for this show to launch and it was so worth the wait. I watch all ten episodes twice and it the story line is really interesting. I will keep this very vague and will not give any spoilers however I feel like there is a big secret and who is suppose to be pure and mighty is really keeping a huge secret and manipulating his people.

WATCH THIS!!

I’ve been waiting for months for this drama and even read the novel while waiting. It definitely fulfilled all my expectations and fixed a lot of the original novel’s flaws and made the storyline overall much better. The storyline is perfectly paced and there’s no drag or filler in any of its episodes. I love Cheng Yi and Yan Dan’s acting and their chemistry is top notch. Both main characters have a good character depth and for why they fell for each other and willing to make sacrifices for each other that make sense unlike some dramas I’ve watched where the main cp fall for each other without making sense or just extremely fast paced. Totally recommend if you loved Love and Redemption and Ashes of Love!!

Love Xianxia!

This drama gives similar vibes to Eternal love and Ashes of Love, meaning that you can expect it to be another big hit. This drama portrays a funny and witty female lead with a more serious male lead. The matching is perfect as their love story really represents a beautiful story. The acting is great as the leads clearly portray such emotion with their actions and words. Their crying scenes really makes your heart ache as that goes with Xianxia dramas. The\ costumes are so pretty and the hair/makeup on YZ are also delicate and pretty. It really makes you want to wear one for yourself lol. The ending ost is too good as well. I've been listening to the 1 hour verison on youtube and I never skip the ending song. Xianxia typically have a lot of tears, so prepare your tissues!

I can't see anthing new

Really. There's nothing new here. If I'm going to watch this for the first time, it is not bad but I can't help and conpare it to Ashes ofLove and Love and Redemption because IT IS SO SIMILAR! The casts says it all. Anyways it's actually fine to see something that it similar but for some reason, the plot here is a "little" worse? Probably because of the villain and the sister? It seems their IQ is so low and they have nothing better to do than chase the so called love. Ughhh 😫
Cast lineup is good. Acting is of course good. That's yang zi and cheng yi, both veterans of their field. Other casts are also veteran. They wasted resources and potential for this.
This was supposed to be one of my highly anticipated xianxia drama.

If you have not watched much of Chinese xianxia fantasy dramas, you should absolutely watch this.

YanDan and ZhiXi were the human transformation of and the only surviving members of the Four-leaves Lotus which had great medicinal value. YanDan had a tiff with the Heavenly Lord YingYuan, God of War when she discovered that he had been bullying a turtle in the garden, flipping him over every time he saw it. Unfortunately she was sent to serve him in his palace.

A war broke out between the immortals and the demons. It was a bloody war and YingYuan returned seriously wounded although victorious. YingYuan knew that he was not going to survive and left his palace to die alone in the forest, so that he would not harm anyone when he went crazy. Fate had it that YanDan would find him already blinded in the forest and nursed him while hiding her real identity. She found out that the heart of the Four-leaves Lotus, of which she was one, would save him and decided to carve out half of her heart to do so. YingYuan knew this healing method earlier and had resisted it.

The immortal realm had a rule that immortals were not fall in love. Breaking this rule brought about severe punishment. Unfortunately for YingYuan and YanDan, the jealous fairy YingDeng who wanted YingYuan for herself was always around to sabotage them. To save YanDan from punishment, YingYuan had to play along very often with the scheming fairy YingDeng to stop her from spilling the truth about them. Part 1 of the drama continued onto Part 2.

I am surprised that Part 1 was rated better than Part 2, although I think Part 2 was more interesting after YanDan was banished to the mortal realm. She forgot who she was and called herself Bai Piao Liang.

Part 1 was very stale and more of the same to me. It was too much like the Ashes of Love where Yang Zi (YanDan) was the female lead, Love and Redemption where ChengYi (YingYuan) was the male lead and some of the earlier Chinese xianxia (fairytale) fantasy dramas. The moods, settings, some scenes and even the title of the drama were too much like these earlier dramas. For example YanDan crossing the WangChuang (River to Forget) reminded me of Ji Mi (Yang Zi) crossing the river to the demon realm to visit Xu Feng (DengLun) in Ashes of Love. There was also a jealous love rival who actively sabotaged - Sui He in Ashes of Love and YingDing in this drama. Part 1 was very emotional but did nothing much for me as it was mainly about one of the lover pretending and pushing away the other while one of them clinged on, so the chemistry between them was almost non-existent. Similarly the character Si Feng in Love and Redemption was always pushing away Xuan Ji - a similar situation of forbidden love. It was draggy, and all about deceit and hiding the truth - a lot of them were very annoying to me.

When the other party pushed one away, one should learn to move on, especially when so little was committed from the other person, regardless whether they reciprocated in their hearts and said nothing.

I will continue with my assessment in Part 2 for the rest of the drama.

However, if you have not watched Ashes of Love and much of Chinese xianxia fantasy dramas, or like to re-live those stories, you will enjoy this drama tremendously. A good drama to get you introduced to the world of Chinese fantasy dramas.

Not deep, just a good time.

This is a very enjoyable series if you're looking to turn your brain off and just have a good time, and I mean this in a positive way. I honestly enjoyed it a lot just vibing along and not taking the plot too seriously.

In terms of technical things like story/cinematography/script/editing/etc. it's extremely average (not terrible, I've definitely seen worse). If you're in here expecting something fresh or groundbreaking, you will be disappointed.

For me the enjoyment comes mainly from the 3 main characters (Yan Dan, Ying Yuan, Yu Mo). All 3 roles were well acted, I didn't find their characters annoying (yes, Yang Zi has played very similar roles before, but honestly she's quite good at it), and their interactions with each other are super fun to watch, especially when they are in the human realm and all kinds of shenanigans are happening. Even though both men are in love with the same woman they don't let that get in the way of working together or make things difficult for the FL. The FL also doesn't cause unnecessary drama that break up their 3-person team. It's clear by the end of the drama that their camaraderie is a core part of the drama that the writing team purposely kept intact to the very end.

As for the romance, the main romance (Ying Yuan and Yan Dan) is nothing to write home about story-wise, but very enjoyable because the actors are charismatic and good at what they do, and they look great doing it. I highly recommend fans of Yang Zi and/or Cheng Yi watch this because they're just a joy to watch (especially fans of Cheng Yi because it's fascinating seeing him play 3 characters in one show).
